Past SBS Compassion Project Events

2011-2012

In our first year, the SBS Compassion Project took the lead on
several initiatives that included faculty from nearly every college at NAU.
Several programs and activities were completed during 2011-2012, including the
development of Hot Topics Café, a faculty development opportunity on
“Mindfulness and Teaching,” and the our creation of our Facebook presence
(PEACE of Northern Arizona).
